Westminster School Interview 2025 16+

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has any idea how the interviews for Westminster 16+ would be like and what to wear; specifically for math, bio, chem and econ. Thanks!

I think you can just wear casual clothes. For the interviews, people say they go through the papers you did for the entrance exams. they mainly test your knowledge i think. some people say you should read books on the subjects u r doing to show your interest and passion. we still have 9 days so good luck!

Hi
If I’m not wrong, Westminster School and Harris Westminster Sixth from are two different schools, and have different applications and deadlines right?

They don't usually go through your entrance exams, no. They will however ask you quite difficult questions to see how you think and react to hints and different ways to approach the question. At the end of the day, you need to show that you are interested in your subject as well. Good luck for tomorrow!

If you get invited to the interview stage that means you did well in the entrance exams. Once you've been invited to interviews, I wouldn't be worrying about the exams.

Is this for 16+? I was under the impression that the application process was completed last year?

Honestly! I though there would be negative marking so I took my chances and guessed half the questions and left the other half! 😭

Yes Sixth Form the exams are today but the application deadline has passed. I think you can still join the waiting list though…

You're talking about Harris, right? There were no exams at Westminster today
